~A Rendezvous with My Pen~
Hey guys and girls!
Yeh Un Dinon ki Baat Hai is a very special show for me. I absolutely love every bit of this 90s love story, the lead pair, Sameer and Naina, because they reintroduced us to a kind of pure, innocent love that was somewhere getting lost in the fast paced life of today's generation. And it was because of this show that I was so overcome with emotion that I picked up the pen and started scribbling what became my first piece of creative writing ever- The Fan Fiction: Love in Mount Abu.
It was Yeh Un Dinon ki Baat Hai which introduced me to our lovely family at India Forums. And now inspired from Mou (moumita04) and a request from some of our friends, I've compiled an Index of all my stories on the forum till now. I'm in no ways an expert, just a 90s kid, who has been in love with the idea of love since forever.
PS: All my stories revolve around the lead couple of the show- Sameer and Naina.
So here you go:
~ONE SHOTS~
Payal meri jaadu jagaati hai (Complete)
Just a while before, Sameer had been protesting in front of his friends that Naina was not his type of girl. And then Mr. Maheshwari had to eat his own words, when his presumed girlfriend pulled out the famous bhoot prank. The prank that introduced a new, naughty side of Naina to him! What if the trinket that scared the whole school, gave the budding lovers some personal moments and brewed up romance in their hearts? Read more...
Valentine's ke din main, keh dun ankahi (Complete)
Sameer had paid a huge price for putting a bet to break an innocent girl's heart. More so, when he understood, he'd fallen in love with the same girl. As part of his penance and his attempts to win Naina back, he'd been trying to make amends and to make her realize that this time his love for her was pure, genuine and ardent. Naina's sister's wedding is about to commence, and Sameer is a guest from the baraat. The tussle is on for the groom's shoes. Who will win this battle- Sameer or Naina? Would the joota churayi in a way, blossom love once again in the two parched hearts? Read more...
Aag barasti hai saawan mein, paani ka hai naam (Complete)
One of the famous instances in the show was when Naina heard a new guy in school, singing this song in the canteen. Gripped by a desire to bag Juliet's role in the school drama, she embarks upon a quest to unearth the meaning of this song, by asking her friends and acquaintances. Her aunt though overhears her and overcome with rage, slaps her then and there. Poor Naina is still in the dark, but since then, has not been able to muster the courage to ask the meaning of the lyrics to anyone. Till that monsoon evening tea with her boyfriend- Sameer Maheshwari. The same guy who'd been singing the song that day itself. As the radio croons the song yet again, Sameer spurts out his tea, as he discovers Naina doesn't understand those lyrics. How would Sameer make his innocent girlfriend understand the sensual meaning of this song, considering he hasn't even gathered the courage to hold her in his arms as yet? Read more...
If Only (Complete)
Life is full of regrets- should haves, could haves, if onlys...But more than often, we realize the depth of these words, once the time has elapsed. But then, things cannot be undone.

Love gives one the power to climb mountains, yet love is what makes one the most vulnerable.

~FAN FICTIONS~
Love in Mt. Abu (Complete)
My version of how the school trip to Mount Abu shaped Naina and Sameer's relationship, triggered the revelation of the bet and Sameer's attempts to win back Naina in his life. And of course, their blossoming love story! This story explores the characters true to their portrayal in the show and attempts to highlight the beauty of their undying, true love. Read more...

Expectedly Unexpected (18+) (Ongoing)
Sameer is a flamboyant, rich and supposedly spoilt brat. Naina is the quintessential good girl. The story is set in the 90s. But what if the same story had a twist? What if the characters acted as we'd never expected them to? What if school was just a stage-setter and their story began when they moved away from the confines of their home, to a college in Mumbai? Naina had been smitten by him since day 1, but seemingly decided against loving a depraved boy like him. Of course because he smokes, he drinks incessantly, he's rude, he's arrogant and supposedly a womanizer. Sameer can't stand her- the teacher's pet, the one responsible for falsely accusing him of theft in school, and leaving him bereft of his mother's presence in life. Yet his eyes always seem to wander over to her, to explore her, and when another of their classmates- Sanjay Tibrewal enters, Sameer is visibly piqued at his proximity with Naina. What if destiny decides to bring them closer? How would their bitter-sweet relationship turn out? Would Naina and Sameer fall in love with each other as was expected? Or does fate have other plans for their love-hate-love story? Read more...
With all your love and support, I hope I can keep on adding more to this list! 😊
